Why I'm Looking Forward to Topps 2011: Mendoza Line Heroes



I have to admit it: I hated when Topps did Mantle, A-Rod, and Bonds Home Run Heroes. Back then I said, 550 of the same card? No thanks. Now I'm saying: 686 of the same card? Yes please!

Finally, Topps does something right: Now collectors will get to re-live every game of Mario Mendoza's immortal career, and follow along towards his historic career batting average: .215!

Don't give them any ideas! Even as a 4/1 joke. They just might run with it!

Just found your blog and must say it's very entertaining. Love the April Fool's Mendoza idea! Don't forget Topps would also have to make a parallel version of each card with an authentic game-used bat piece!
